    Re: Extra settings for Nod32

    1. Please LEAVE Location Server as “Choose automatically”, I say this for many reasons:

    * If a particular server is down, NOD32 will NOT be able to roll on to the next server.
    * Experience shows us that you will have fewer or no problems with updating using this setting.
    * Let Eset do their job and balance loads on the servers.

    2 and 3. Your Username and Password will appear here if you have followed this tutorial from the beginning.


    Do not try to use a Username and Password that you have created, ONLY a UN and PW provided by Eset will work.


    See HERE for instructions on how to enter a Username and Password correctly.


    4. Click on “Change”.

    Re: Extra settings for Nod32

    1. It is advisable that you choose the Radio Button that has NOD32 “Perform program component upgrade if available” and “Offer computer restart if necessary”.


    NOTE:
    due to the size of some/all engine updates, you may NOT want this setting if you are on a Dialup Internet Connection.


    2. Click on “OK”.

    Re: Extra settings for Nod32 v2.5 - revised 16-05-2005

    1. This is where you can set your type of connection if NOD32 hasn’t already picked it up.

    Please Note: WIRELESS broadband users, it is advisable to choose the “Dial-up” radio button, this will have NOD32 wait for a connection to be established before attempting an update.

    2. Click on Proxy server “Setup”.

    1. Your various Log files can be found here. Should you need to, you can click on an entry in the right hand Window, then click on “Copy selected”. You can then paste what you have copied into Notepad, or Microsoft Word etc.

    1. This is one of the places where you can Submit your Quarantined files to Eset.

    The actual storage folder for Quarantined files can be found in C Drive> Program Files> Eset> Infected.

    ONLY after your first infection has been actually quarantined will this folder be created.

    1. Choose a Radio Button that suits your requirements.

    2. This will prevent overlaps of a Scheduled Task if you choose the Radio Button in the screenshot.

    3. Click on “Next”.

    Re: Extra settings for Nod32 v2.5 - revised 16-05-2005

    1. Click on “Browse”.

    2. Browse to where NOD32 is installed, typically where you see in this screenshot.

    3. Click on the Eset folder.

    4. Click on “nod32.exe” or NOD32 if you are not displaying extensions, both are the same file.

    5. Click on “Open”.

    Re: Extra settings for Nod32 v2.5 - revised 17-06-2005

    1. This is what you should see now.

    2. Do the same for the work directory, except only go as far as the Eset folder. This step is a MUST for Windows 98 and Vista.

    3. Place in the “Command line” all appropriate “Switches” that suit your requirements.

    4. Click on “OK”.




    From what I can see, the following switches should give the greatest and maximum strength scan:

    /adware /ah /all /antistealth+ /arch+ /clean /cleanmode /delete /heur+ /log+ /mailbox+ /ntfs+ /pack+ /quarantine /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /scanmem+ /scroll+ /sfx+ /unsafe /unwanted /wrap+

    For NOD32 version 2.5 use:

    /adware /ah /all /arch+ /clean /cleanmode /delete /heur+ /log+ /mailbox+ /ntfs+ /pack+ /quarantine /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /scanmem+ /scroll+ /sfx+ /unsafe /wrap+




    Your scan settings will start with:

    C:\ (single space) /switches go here - see screenshot




    Or


    Copy and Paste the following directly into your settings:


    C:\ /adware /ah /all /antistealth+ /arch+ /clean /cleanmode /delete /heur+ /log+ /mailbox+ /ntfs+ /pack+ /quarantine /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /scanmem+ /scroll+ /sfx+ /unsafe /unwanted /wrap+

    For NOD32 version 2.5 use:

    C:\ /adware /ah /all /arch+ /clean /cleanmode /delete /heur+ /log+ /mailbox+ /ntfs+ /pack+ /quarantine /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /scanmem+ /scroll+ /sfx+ /unsafe /wrap+




    Or


    To scan MORE than ONE HARD DRIVE do NOT use C:\

    Instead, use the following:



    /local /adware /ah /all /antistealth+ /arch+ /clean /cleanmode /delete /heur+ /log+ /mailbox+ /ntfs+ /pack+ /quarantine /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /scanmem+ /scroll+ /sfx+ /unsafe /unwanted /wrap+

    For NOD32 version 2.5 use:

    /local /adware /ah /all /arch+ /clean /cleanmode /delete /heur+ /log+ /mailbox+ /ntfs+ /pack+ /quarantine /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /scanmem+ /scroll+ /sfx+ /unsafe /wrap+

    Note: If the switches: /prompt, /rename, /delete/ or /replace are used concurrently with the /clean switch, the corresponding action will be carried out only if the virus cannot be cleaned. The further a parameter is listed, the higher priority it has. For instance, using the "/clean /delete /prompt " parameters will result in that the "/prompt " parameter will supersede the "/clean /delete" parameters.

    1. Remain in the Schedular/Planner module.

    2. The “Scheduled scan” that you have just set up will now appear here.

    1. Right Click on your new scheduled scan this will pop up a small window as seen in the screenshot.

    2. Click on “Run now”. If your settings are correct you will see the next screenshot as the scan starts.

    [4] LOCKED FILES

    1. This will show drives that are in the process of being scanned.

    2. [4] Locked Files are password protected or Windows System Swap Files, it is unlikely for such a file to be infected, however the possibility still remains.
